We loved Provendar. The way the interior has been finished off in theis old building gives you a real comfortable atmosphere. There is a nice bar area and plenty of booths; however I would recommend making reservations if you are traveling this way, just to make sure you can get one. The food, the drinks and the service were great. We had the "Rabbit" Egg rolls and Mussels for appetizers which were both great and then followed that up with their delicious house burger. Definitely will be back to try out the rest of the menu!
The menu wasn't as presented on the website. Service was slow. We had to flag down our waitress who was standing behind the bar most of the evening. My husband's chicken was bland and the risotto was like soup. My burger was delicious. I also had the appetizer of beets. The beets themself were great, but the feta dip they were served on was so salty that it was inedible.
*update* since our experience, the manager has contacted me several times. Daron is the perfect example of customer service. He not only offered to buy us dinner, but he's reached out several times to ensure we get a reservation whenever it's convenient for us. Based on the service he's provided we will try definitely try again.
Everything is amazing. The atmosphere is great, service is on point, and the food is absolutely out of this world. Willing to travel 6+ hours to come up here every few months and never disappointed. The chef is accommodating with a vegan menu that is on par with the rest of the menu. And the desserts are to die.
Keep up the great work, we will be back soon!
We’re so grateful to have heard about Provender. We just enjoyed our first fantastic meal here and are looking forwarding to returning frequently. The staff was incredibly kind and thoughtful as they answered questions about the menu and made suggestions for our table. Our entire table ordered off the vegan menu and we’re thrilled with the entire experience. As we were finishing up the owner came to visit, asking how our experience was and chatting briefly with our table and some others prior to heading back to the kitchen!
The Truffle Fries were a delicious starter and I enjoyed the vegan ravioli.
My girlfriend and I tried Provender on a whim during our trip to Maine, and we were absolutely blown away. We decided to give it a try when we had to just "wing" some dinner plans one night. After looking over the menu online, it looked promising. In the end, both of us loved our dishes--They were cooked perfectly and it was the most memorable meal we had on our trip! Would definitely eat here again if we're ever back in the Bar Harbor area.
